Autoit-gui 101.18 Available

[jpm]

I already tried and can't do this with unstable release    Please look example:

Opt("GUINotifyMode", 1)
$ES_CENTER = 1
$ES_READONLY = 2048
$CBS_DROPDOWNLIST = 3

GUICreate ("UpDown (?) bug test", 227, 144)
$add=GUISetControl("button", "Add", 135, 20, 30, 20)
$hedit=GUISetControl("input", "", 15, 50, 45, 22, $ES_CENTER)
GUISetControlNotify(-1, 0); Trying to disable notification
GUISetControl("updown", $hedit, 0, 0)
GuiSetControlEx(-1, 0, 0, "", 0, 23)
$medit=GUISetControl("input", "", 65, 50, 45, 22, $ES_CENTER)
GUISetControl("updown", $medit, 0, 0)
GuiSetControlEx(-1, 0, 0,"", 0, 59)
$combo=GUISetControl("combo", "", 135, 50, 76, 20, $CBS_DROPDOWNLIST)

GUIShow()

While GUIMsg() <> 0
    $k=GUIRead() 
    Select
        Case $k = $add
            $curtime = StringFormat ("%02d:%02d", GUIRead($hedit), GUIRead($medit))
            GUISetControlData($combo, "*" & $curtime)
    Endselect
    MsgBox (0, "ControlREF", $k)
Wend

Even if you try to change input that not notify, you anyway need two clicks to do button action. Maybe this just bug inthe last unstable?

Working perfect with the modification I will upload to Jon.

I add a little beep when I cannot send the second message

[jpm]

Can't you queue the events in some way?

Whatever you do, though, don't make it default behavior.  You'll break scripts that way.  It should have to be explicitly turned on no matter which GuiNotifyMode is being used.

I will not change the behavior but as I said very difficult to have script handling to simultaneous gui event. Just have a look at the code and make some suggestion.

You will upload? So this is not current version (from 26.04)? (I not see any changes in it)

But with GUIMsg(0) you can at least very close simulate this? I not see problems to handle two consecutive messages by this way.

I just upload can you test it

Thanks

EDIT your script need an extra GuiSetControlNotify(-&,0) on the second input

Thanks, jpm, seems now it is as it should be

Of course, but now it shows how input notify

Thanks for fixing it jpm. I had the same problem. I spent all day Sunday trying to figure out what I was doing wrong in my script. Now how do I get rid of that beep (without turning off the system sound).

Thanks again

Sorry for the bad sunday.

I will remove ithe beep in the final edition. I just want to be for sure that an event was not sent

[alawoona]

no problem about sunday....was raining outside all day

On a similar note I cannot get a listbox to notify when I click on an entry within the list. I could do that in AU3GUIXP. Have tried it with Opt("GUINotifyMode", 1)

and with GUISetControlNotify($list, 2).

I can confirm that listboxes work as I've written something for AutoIt that uses a listbox.

[alawoona]

Can now verify that Valik. I wrote myself a simple script and it works....now I gotta go back to my real script and find out what I did wrong.

[Valik]

How ironic. It is a bug and I just found it. LBS_NOTIFY apparently isn't being forced onto listboxes and it needs to be. alawoona, you're obviously changing the list-box style and this is causing a critical style to not be there. Add this style when you create the listbox control:

Global $LBS_NOTIFY = 1

[alawoona]

Valik - I was changing the style in my script. Removed the style and it did notify. I will check your solution. Thanks.

Have another observation. I am using the GUISetControl to "rewrite" an existing control, see this example -

GUICreate ("checkbox  test", 250, 150, 20, 20)
$checkCN = GUISetControl("checkbox", "CHECKBOX 1", 10, 10, 120, 20)
$buttonCN = GUISetControl("button", "BUTTON 1", 50, 50, 100, 30)

GUIShow()
MsgBox(4096, "", "Rewrite button")
GUISetControl($buttonCN, "New", 50, 50, 100, 30)
MsgBox(4096, "", "Rewrite checkbox")
GUISetControl($checkCN, "check me", 110, 10, 120, 20) 
MsgBox(4096, "", "why did this not rewrite the text on the checkbox")

Rewriting the text on the button works. Rewriting the text on the checkbox does not (but I can move it to a different position)?

EDIT -

Valik your solution

Global $LBS_NOTIFY = 1

Solved the other problem

Question about tab controls:

I am unable to CGUISetControlEx any tab property documented in the help file's appendix.

Also, Microsoft Spy shows that tab controls have both TCS_SINGLELINE and TCS_MULTILINE in the default style (but the appendix says that the default should be singleline).

For the rewrite checkbox. the false reason is GuiSetControl do as GuiWrite that is to say no update text.

Thanks for finding this difference. I will update the code to allows it and the doc to be clearer in the potential difference when using dynamically GUIsetControl

Do we need to make it as a default?

The same thing happens for the radio control.

[jpm]

jpm: thank you

The same thing happens for the radio control.

I know corrected at the same time

[Valik]

When the style has been set at creation, it won't notify unless the style is added, so yes, it needs added as a default. It needs to be forced on whenever GuiNotifyMode=1 or when the control has explicitly been set to notify through GUISetControlNotify(), regardless of whether the user changes the styles or not.

I would look at combo-boxes as well, they could have a similar message that needs set. Also, make sure static controls have SS_NOTIFY set when appropriate.

Do I enforce it whatever the user define?

[Valik]

Yes. That's the issue. It isn't being forced when the user changes styles, so even though the control may be set to notify, it doesn't generate the notification message.

LBS_NOTIFY

Notifies the parent window with an input message whenever the user clicks or double-clicks a string in the list box.
